Wasn't there an old DOS command called Unformat? Of course, I bet it would depend on whether the disk was formatted in FAT32 or NTFS.

There was no "un-format" DOS command, but if he had used a windows cd to format, it would of as d3v said push back the data. If the HDD was allready in the correct format for the OS being installed. There are programs out there that can find this pushed back data but they are hard to find.

If he formated it with the new windows install than I would say his data is pretty much toast. It is possible he could get some or perhaps a good deal of what he wanted to but the process would be expensive to get someone else to do it and it would be very time consuming if he tried to do it himself. Best thing to do is just say fuck it and move on, its just not worth it.

Though it appears that it required the old DOS format command, so it could save the data for it to restore from. Don't know if Windows saves any pre-format data..
